Presenters
Evan Dimov has been a Mr. Electric franchisee since November 2022. After successfully developing businesses, opening restaurants and retail stores, making them profitable, and selling them, Evan found a perfect fit with Mr. Electric. Despite having no experience in the electrical industry, he discovered that running a Mr. Electric franchise was more manageable than his previous businesses, due in great part to comprehensive corporate training and, most importantly, the invaluable knowledge and support from over two hundred fifty franchisees who were always ready to share their insights. Evan now mentors new franchisees looking to grow their businesses.
